What size flagpole do I need?
Size the pole to the building: 20 ft for single-story homes, 25 ft for two-story homes, 30 ft for large homes and acreage, and 25–35 ft for most business sites. A flag should be roughly one quarter to one third of the pole height, so a 20 ft pole flies a 3x5 or 4x6, a 25 ft pole a 4x6 or 5x8, and a 30 ft pole a 5x8.
- 20 ft → 3x5 or 4x6 flag
- 25 ft → 4x6 or 5x8 flag
- 30 ft → 5x8 flag
